Once you've set the anchor-watch alarm to honk, a continuous honking
sequence begins either when your vessel moves outside the specified

If the vessel moves outside the set anchor-alarm radius, then for the next
10 seconds, the exclamation point begins flashing and the alarm auto-
matically starts beeping (you'll hear the beeping only if you've set the
ALARM AUDIO option on the ALARMS or ALARMS & BACKLIGHT screen
to ON). The honk sequence then starts for a total of 3.5 minutes: 1 second
of honking followed by 14 seconds of silence; 2 seconds of honking fol-
lowed by 13 seconds of silence; 3 seconds of honking followed by 12 sec-
onds of silence, and so forth, until the honking is up to 14 seconds
followed by 1 second of silence. This 3.5-minute honk cycle repeats for-
ever unless you clear the anchor alarm. This honk does not automatically
clear with the following conditions:
•
the vessel moves back into the anchor-alarm radius
•
you change the anchor-alarm radius
• you select a new "drop anchor" position
•
